Tempura Takeover - Gilbert, Arizona

abir D.

This was our first time visiting the place and I must say I was blown away by the presentation of every dish that came out from there. It is located in a gas station and I had no clue a gas station food can looked not only good but also taste good. Everything is made fresh from scratch so it takes some time but oh boy I should definitely give it to them everything was spot on, from seasoning to freshness to presentation.

People might find it little expensive for a gas station food. But you should also get what kind of protein you are getting.

The dish I ordered was tempura luxe with bun and sunny side up on top. The bread was nicely toasted in butter and the smell of butter was there on every bite of the bread. The protein was well cooked. Then came the sunny side up on top. Wow it was delight to watch and even more delightful to eat. Standing up to their tag line “Sophisticated Street Eatery”.

Definitely recommended and will come back for sure.

Was in town visiting family and my mom had to take me to her favorite spot! Donna, who runs this cart, is so friendly and helpful! All the food we ordered came out hot and fresh and beyond delicious. 15/10 would come back every time I’m in town!

OMG!!! I flew all the way from Georgia just to try this! The food was AMAZING!!! I had the shrimp tacos, let me tell you- the shrimp were LARGE and deveined, not over cooked. You could taste the freshness. I also had the shrimp toast basket with rice and egg. This combo was so freaking good. That takeover sauce -OMG, I’ll definitely purchase a bottle of this sauce next time. I mixed the takeover sauce with the wasabi sauce and loved it. The customer service was extremely welcoming. I could tell the food is made with love!! I cannot wait to see the owners’ future. I know there will be a restaurant coming next. This food is ABSOLUTELY amazing!

ABSOLUTELY DERRICIOUS!!!!!!

Not what you would expect from the outside since it's inside a Gas station, but trust me when I say that the food was phenomenal to say the least. Most definitely will be going back for more.

Delicious food ran by a owner with great enthusiasm! The food is worth the price and the wait. This place deserves to take over that gas station.

The food is just as good as it looks. It's hard to believe food this great comes out of a gas station. Literally I can't wait to go back.

This is our go to take out restaurant. We had the shrimp tacos and the shrimp bowl, which are both sooo good! It's inside of the gas station which is clean and convenient.
I love the fact that we get to support a local, small, startup business and get delicious food in the process.

For being currently located in a gas station, you will never believe the level of service and food that you can get here.

Nadonna is the owner and chef and deserves a freestanding building for the cuisine she produces.

We tried the sloppy lobster sandwich, the shrimp burger, the shrimp fries and the spicy tater tots. The food was unbelievable in both taste and the abundance served to you. Don't let the price scare you off as it is well worth it.

We will be heading back here time and time again and when she finally has a brick-and-mortar location of her own we will be first in line and dining there weekly.
